"The Meeting that Never Was" presents an imagined encounter between artworks from the MO Museum and Van Abbemuseum, alongside significant loans from other Lithuanian collections, highlighting artists and pieces that were separated during the Cold War. Featuring works created between 1955 and 2000, the exhibition traces the evolution of postwar modern art, offering insights into how artists from different backgrounds addressed their histories and struggles, while also reflecting on the lasting impact of this tumultuous period on contemporary society.
